GIMME TINNITUS

So, I wanted to give the readers of GIMME TINNITUS a look into what gets posted at our supplemental blog, GIMME Tumblr. There are some really great tracks over there, some of which probably deserve their own full GT post, but I suppose this mix will have to suffice. If you want to follow GIMME Tumblr, here is the rss feed (or you could just join Tumblr). Listen.

UPDATE: I totally forgot about that EP of reworked The Forms songs that was announced last year. We heard there are a lot of awesome guests on it. Matt Berninger of little band known as The National is one name that was thrown around. I suppose the EP is being meticulously tweaked in the band’s recording studio. I assume the EP will be released this year.

Oh, and I’m sure no one will notice a new release from LCD Soundsystem.


NOTE: you can click on the album names for pre-ordering/more album info.
